Abstract

This study develops a systematic methodology, TOPSIS-RSR, to assess road safety development in an integrative manner for ASEAN (Association of Southeast Asian Nations) countries. Using other methods and measures as references, 11 countries are ranked based on their overall road safety performance over the past ten years (2009-2018) and divided into several classes. This provides government officials and policy makers in all ASEAN member countries with a flexible tool to comprehensively assess road safety developments. Providing the ability to identify delays in the implementation of action plans and to proactively reallocate resources to more effective actions when needed. It helps ASEAN member countries to build capacity for sustainable safety management and supports them in developing future strategies.
